Fuente Osmena
Fuente Osmena
Overview: Fuente Osmena, which means Osmena Fountain, is a monument in the Fuente Osmena park and rotunda in Cebu City’s uptown area, also the city center. It is named after President Sergio Osmeña. The rotunda sits at the intersection of Osmena Blvd and Jones Ave. and General Maxilom Ave (Mango Ave).
Fuente Osmena is not only noted for its central locale to most everything in Cebu City (and its hotels, restaurants, hospital, etc.) but also for its social and cultural significance. Inside the park is a skating rink. The park and the surrounding area is also a favorite place for the locals to hang out, especially during the annual Sinulog Festival and parade, the biggest event in Cebu.
Location: north of Cebu City’s downtown/pier area
